It's not even debt. They just printed the money and "loaned" it to the feds. Hell, why tax if you can just print whatever you want?

Taxation is deflationary, printing is inflationary. They had deflationary policies canceling out inflationary moneyprinting until 2017. They got to then decide who received the printed money.
